Please, every time someone proposes farmers lead a less cushioned life we get these huge bitter fights from somewhere. They don't also have to exist here. If you have a vested interest and want your subsidies to continue, that's cool! But there's no need to peddle your salty response to it when literally everyone everywhere has already heard them said many, many times.

Jesus Christ... Come spend a week on my farm and see how cushy it is.

I grew up in the countryside. I'm sure your farm is very difficult to live on, but I'm not so sure it's a general thing.

Edit: Besides that, a subsidy is a cushion. That's what I was talking about. That doesn't merit this response.
